The new guidelines include three strong recommendations and focus on organ-specific disease, including musculoskeletal, cutaneous, hematologic, and neurologic manifestations.

There are 36 recommendations within the guidelines, expected to be shared with the public in the coming weeks, aiming to provide more universal use of optimal disease management for people with SLE and reduce barriers to care.

The hope for the new guidelines and recommendations is to provide more universal use of optimal disease management for people with SLE and reduce barriers to care.
